One letter from Malinda Bayler to Leonard Eugene Graeff dated January 13, 1944. Malinda updates Leonard in a second letter. She writes that Susan sounded a little bit better when she called. Susan still has headaches and sinus problems, but is too weak to go to the doctors office for the treatments that would help. Raymond will be away with work for a few days so Malinda hopes they get Susan to the doctors that night. Malinda wrote that Susan read Leonard's letter to them and it was good to hear how he was doing.
